  1. Professional Development for CCSSM Curriculum Analysis Reviewers June 2011

  2. Introductions Ask participants to introduce themselves and indicate their current work and why they are serving on this committee.

  3. Goals of Professional Development Sessions • To provide an overview of the CCSSM Curriculum Analysis Tools for reviewers • To acquaint reviewers with the process and tools to be used in their reviews of curriculum materials • To assist reviewers in using appropriate criteria for the selection of mathematics curriculum materials

  4. Focus of Professional Development To ensure that reviewers are familiar with the three tools to be used in analyzing mathematics curriculum materials: • Tool 1—Mathematics Content Alignment • Tool 2—Use of Mathematical Practices • Tool 3—General Overarching Considerations

  5. Professional Development Schedule 1st/2nd Hr Overview of Curriculum Analysis Project Introduction of Common Core Standards (Domains, Clusters, Standards) Introduction of the Three Analysis Tools Description of Development Process 3rd Hr Description and Use of Tool 1 4th Hr Description and Use of Tool 2 5th Hr Description and Use of Tool 3 6th Hour Reaching Consensus as a Team

  6. Financial Support for the Curriculum Analysis Tools • Brookhill Foundation (Kathy Stumpf) • Texas Instruments (through CCSSO)

  7. Development Team • William S. Bush (chair), Mathematics Educator, University of Louisville, Kentucky • Diane Briars, President, National Council of Supervisors of Mathematics, PA • JereConfrey, Mathematics Educator, North Carolina State University • Kathleen Cramer, Mathematics Educator, University of Minnesota • Carl Lee, Mathematician, University of Kentucky • W. Gary Martin, Mathematics Educator, Auburn University, Alabama • Michael Mays, Mathematician, West Virginia University • Valerie Mills, Supervisor, Mathematics Education, Oakland Schools, Michigan • Fabio Milner, Mathematician, Arizona State University • Suzanne Mitchell, Mathematics Educator/Administrator, Executive Director of the Arkansas Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Coalition • Thomas Post, Mathematics Educator, University of Minnesota • Robert Ronau, Mathematics Educator, University of Louisville, Kentucky • Donna Simpson Leak, Superintendent, Rich Township High School District 227, IL • Marilyn Strutchens, Mathematics Educator, Auburn University, Alabama

  8. Tool Development Process • Development Team formed in October 2010 • First version of tools developed in November 2010 • Initial drafts of tools piloted with groups of elementary middle, and high school teachers in December 2010 • Tools revised based on these pilots • Tools reviewed by postsecondary mathematics educators, mathematicians, and public school administrators nationally in January 2011 • Tools revised based on input from these reviewers to obtain final versions in April 2011

  9. Session 1 Goals 1. Teachers and administrators will know the funders of and development team members in the CCSSO Mathematics Curriculum Analysis Project 2. Teachers and administrators will learn about the process for developing the products (Tools 1, 2, and 3, User’s Guide, professional development sessions) of the CCSSO Mathematics Curriculum Analysis Project. 3. Teachers will learn the roles and purposes of each of the three analysis tools developed in the Project.

  10. Overview of Common Core Content State Standards for Mathematics • Group into grade bands of 2-4 persons: K-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12 • Provide each group a copy of the CCSS for Mathematics • Note the structure of the CCSSM • Look for “trajectories” of like content topics across grade bands (e.g., addition/subtraction, fractions, solving equations, quadrilaterals) • Record strands on chart paper • Discuss the “trajectories.”

  11. CCSS for Mathematical Practice • Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. • Reason abstractly and quantitatively. • Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. • Model with mathematics. • Use appropriate tools strategically. • Attend to precision. • Look for and make use of structure. • Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

  12. Overview of Standards for Mathematical Practice • Keep reviewers in the same groups as for the previous activity • Assign each group 1-3 Mathematical Practices to review • Ask groups to construct mathematical tasks that reflect their assigned Practices • Write tasks on chart paper • Discuss challenges with regard to developing tasks

  13. Purpose of Tool 1 • Determine the extent to which the Core Content Standards for Mathematics are included in the mathematics curriculum materials • Determine the extent to which Core Content Standards for Mathematics are sequenced appropriately in the mathematics curriculum materials

  14. Tool 1 Activity(Mathematical Content) • Distribute the grade-level versions of Tool 1 focusing on Mathematical Content Standards to participants • Explain/Discuss the components of Tool 1 • Divide participants into groups and have them analyze curriculum materials with their assigned Tool • Discuss alignment between curriculum materials and Mathematics Content Standards • Discuss challenges with using Tool 1

  15. Components of Tool 1 Review the following components of Tool 1 • Information about reviewers • Grade/Course location of content in textbooks • Judgment about alignment with standard (N,L,M,A,H) • Notes and comments about alignment and quality • General comments about mathematical content and practices

  16. Tool 1K-5 Mathematics Content • Two-Dimensional Geometry for Grades K-2 • Two-Dimensional Geometry for Grades 3-5 • Place Value and Base 10 Concepts for Grades K-2 • Place Value Concepts for Grades 3-5 • Addition and Subtraction for Grades K-2 • Multiplication and Division for Grades K-5

  17. Tool 16-8 Mathematics Content • Ratios and Proportional Relations • Expressions and Equations • Geometry • Statistics and Probability

  18. Tool 19-12 Mathematics Content • Reasoning with Equations • Interpreting Functions • Similarity and Trigonometry • Interpreting Categorical and Quantitative Data

  19. Use/Review of Tool 1 • Divide group in pairs or triples • Distribute different content tools and textbooks to each group • Ask groups to analyze textbooks using their assigned tool • Ask each group to complete chart in Review of Content Analysis Tool • Discuss their responses as a group and record responses to questions

  20. Purpose of Tool 2 (Mathematical Practices) To determine the extent to which the mathematics curriculum materials reflect and involve students in the Mathematical Practices

  21. Introduction of Tool 2 (Mathematical Practices) • Distribute Tool 2 to groups as formed in previous Tool 1 activity • Distribute the bulleted list of Mathematical Practices • Ask groups to go to page 7 in the User’s Guide and read about using Tool 2 • Discuss the organization of the Practices in the section (next slide)

  22. Components of Tool 2 • Information about reviewers • Extent to which materials address the Mathematical Practices • Judgment about integration of Practices among themselves • Judgment about embeddednessof Practices in the materials evaluated • Rationale and Examples about each of last 3 bullets

  23. Use/Review of Tool 2 • Ask groups to select one or more shaded areas from Tool 1 and describe how the Mathematical Practices were treated in the curriculum materials using Tool 2 • Ask each group to complete chart in Review of Mathematical Practices Tool • Discuss challenges in using Tool 2

  24. Presentation and Review of Tool 3 • Distribute Tool 3 (Overarching Considerations Regarding Mathematics Curriculum Analysis) and discuss the sections and questions in the tool. • Ask reviewers to work in same groups as for Tools 1 and 2 and complete Tool 3 with regard to their previous textbooks. • Ask each group to complete chart in Review of Tool 3. • Discuss and compare responses on the tables in Tool 3. Discuss differences and consensus.

  25. Closing Activity What the strengths of the tools? What are the greatest challenges or issues regarding using the three tools?
